INTERVIEW
How would you describe your dance style?
My dance style was made by friends and environment in Japan. I’m living in Australia now, my style is changing. But my style’s basic is Hip Hop.
What continues to inspire you to dance?
Because I like dance…If I’m tired of dancing, I will stop my dance life. My life is only one time…Therefore I do that I want to do it now.
As a dancer, what are your goals?
I think there are not perfect routine, battle, showcase and performance. So I don’t have goals as far as I dance. When I stopped dance, it is a goal.
What would you say to anyone aspiring to be a dancer?
As much as you practice, your dance improves. There is something in the point of effort.
How often do u dance?
Basic is very important. 2nd groove, 3rd technique. I’m practicing with those images.
Any shout outs u wanna give?
Street dance is just a no rule game. The feeling is important.
